Abstract

SUMMARY The engine assembly department of Piaggio & C. S.p.A. in the industrialization phase of the new engine M648, propose the introduction of a new method for the analysis of assembly phases and for the studies of the necessary machines and equipments. This need arose because the design of equipments, machinery and the same assembly line was entrusted to outside suppliers. We have, therefore, issues related to the expectations of the buyer, confidentiality of information that they provided with the order and any delays which can occur for misunderstandings between the parties. The purpose of this work is to improve the assembly cycle, generating a 3D image for each phase of work, by using the modelling software CAD. Thus, focusing on clarity of documentations to be sent during application equipment, is expected to reduce drastically the time of supplies. RIASSUNTO: Il processo di montaggio di un motore è molto articolato: analizzando tutte le operazioni con particolare attenzione alle macchine, alle attrezzature necessarie e ai tempi; l’obiettivo è di generare un’immagine 3D per ogni fase di lavoro, per maggiore chiarezza, da cui ci si aspetta una riduzione dei tempi.
